Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer
to each of the questions.
While the cover letter has increasingly become a divisive topic among employers and job seekers, many
employers still think cover letters are important. According to a 2023 study by employment website Zippia, more
than a fourth (26 percent) of employers "always read cover letters" and think they're an important factor of the
hiring decision. And almost half (45 percent) said that not including a cover letter could get your application rejected.
So in most cases, it's best to be cautious and include one. It can help you stand out from the crowd. Employers have
to read through a lot of application forms for just one role. As a result, if you have similar abilities as other
candidates, a cover letter allows you to highlight your personality and special skills. In short, including a cover letter
is truly useful for job search. Here's how:
 It shows that you are willing to put in extra effort. Looking for a new job requires a lot of work, so it might be
hard to write different cover letters for different positions. However, according to the Zippia study, 61
percent of hiring managers consider a customized resume (including a cover letter and portfolio link) as the
"top method for applicants to increase their chances of getting a job."
 You can solve any biases that may exist. In an ideal world, employers wouldn't judge you based on things like
gaps in employment or frequent job changes. Career coach Marlo Lyons suggests using your cover letter to
explain any gaps and provide context for these situations, so employers don't get the wrong impression.
29. The passage mainly discusses _________________.
A. the importance of cover letters in job applications
B. the role of recruiters in the hiring process
C. the benefits of including a resume in a job search
D. the study conducted by Zippia on cover letter usage
30. According to the 2023 study by Zippia, ____________ of the employers think cover letters are important.
A. two thirds B. nearly half C. a fourth D. nearly all
31. According to the passage, not including a cover letter could potentially result in __________.
A. improving your chances of getting a job B. making your application stand out
C. getting your application rejected D. addressing potential biases
32. The word "divisive" in the passage can be replaced with __________.
A. positive B. unimportant C. controversial D. spectacular

Twenty Vietnamese high school students are currently living in Australia. They are there for three weeks as
part of a living-abroad project. The 16- and 17-year-old students are living with Australian families and attending
English classes. Most of the students have taken English language classes for 5 or 6 years and are finally getting an

most timid are trying their best to speak English. They are learning a lot. I'm very impressed,” said Mrs. Lan. “I think
living with an Australian family makes a difference because the students are forced to speak English. They also have
the opportunity to learn about Australian culture. We're all very grateful to the Australian families who are hosting
us."
The Australian families are happy to host the students, as they are getting to learn about Vietnamese culture.
Both groups will be celebrating a farewell party at the end of the stay. There will be a slide show of memories and
the students will speak about their experiences. "Living in Australia is an experience I'll never forget," writes student
Van Anh.
